VL - 41 IS - 4 U2 - w03 U3 - Abstract available N2 - The aim of this article is to explore how African films such as "Keita! The Heritage of the Griot" (Mali, 1995) and "Kare Kare Zvako: Mother's Day" (Zimbabwe, 2004) reinvent oral traditions on-screen, so that the traditions are revitalised and given new life in a contemporary world where visual and literary narratives have tended to dominate the collection and dissemination of information. The ontological and cosmological dimensions of African oral traditions provide the cultural humus that continues to feed the narrative structures of most African films. It is argued that the films' conscious refusal to be totally submerged in European modernism or their capacity to merge some traditional aspects with modern values is what constructs the multiple subjectivities that most African filmmakers strive to bring out. By using oral narrative structures embedded in songs, storytelling, myths, legends, poems, riddles, anecdotes and proverbs, the selected African films recreate traditions and heritage; they help to preserve African values that face a Western onslaught, promoted through European languages. Oral narratives carry a freight of cultural meanings infused in different modes of expression, while articulating the philosophies and beliefs of African people. It is important to recognise and [re]discover the critical role played by oral narratives in order to understand the epistemologies and ontologies that inform the construction of African films. A study of this nature is critical in that it builds on the existing indigenous knowledge systems embedded in orature (oral literature) that remain threatened by European cultural imperialism, which is promoted through the Hollywood film paradigm.

VL - 46 IS - 2 U2 - w03 U3 - Abstract available N2 - This article compares Person-Gender-Number (PGN) markers, the pronoun system and word order in declaratives in Naro and G//ana, two languages of Botswana. These languages are similar in that (a) nouns are marked for person, gender and number; (b) both have complex pronoun systems; (c) the plural and dual categories distinguish inclusive from exclusive pronouns; (d) main lexical items in both languages can be focused through fronting. They differ in that G//ana NPs are marked for nominative and oblique case through the PGN marker, while in Naro this is not so. In Naro if constituents are re-ordered, the PGN marker of the fronted constituent hosts the PGN marker of the subject NP, thus identifying the subject. The use of pronouns in a sentence impacts word order at sentential level in Naro but not in G//ana. PGN markers are obligatory for subjects only in G//ana. Bibliogr., notes, ref., sum.

VL - 24 IS - 3 U2 - w03 U3 - Abstract available N2 - Price-based empirical evidence on the extent to which product markets are integrated in developing regions is noticeably limited, particularly in Africa. This article uses highly disaggregated retail price data for twenty-four narrowly defined products collected at the district level in four Southern African Development Community (SADC) countries (Botswana, Malawi, South Africa and Zambia) to assess the extent to which product prices are integrated within and between these countries. The authors find evidence of large and persistent absolute deviations from the law of one price both within and between each of the four countries. Price dispersion is found to be higher between SADC countries than within the individual countries. On average, absolute price deviations between country pairs are smaller for countries adjacent to each other and for countries that share common membership in the Southern African Customs Union. Simple econometric estimates show that absolute price deviations between district pairs in the region increase the further apart the districts are from each other and are higher in the case of districts separated by a national border. Overall, the authors find no clear evidence that product markets in the SADC region have become more integrated between 2006 and 2009 (although product prices between the Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa countries did become more integrated over this period), despite the liberalisation of tariffs under the SADC Protocol on Trade. Trade liberalisation alone appears not to be sufficient in generating greater product market integration within the region. Bibliogr., notes, ref., sum.

VL - 46 U2 - w03 U3 - Abstract available N2 - The article examines code-switching in the Logoli speech community in the cosmopolitan Kangemi informal settlement area on the outskirts of the city of Nairobi, Kenya. The aim of the study is to investigate the sociolinguistic developments that result from the urban language contact settings of Kangemi and to identify and illustrate motivations that influence the tendency of the Logoli speakers to alternate codes between Lulogoli, Kiswahili and English. Extracts from the corpus gathered by tape recordings and participant observation are analysed within a theoretical framework based on the Markedness Model developed by Carol Myers-Scotton. The study identifies and interprets the key social variables that determine code-switching behaviour in the Logoli speech community. These include age, education, status and the various social domains of interaction. This supports the view that code-switching is not a random phenomenon but a strategy and a negotiation process that aims at maximising benefits from interaction. Bibliogr., notes, ref., sum.

Environmental conditions determined that people had to move to live, whether they were hunter-gatherers, pastoralists, or agriculturalists. This movement of people came to be exacerbated in the process of massive labour migration engendered by colonial rule from at least the1870s onward. Througout Africa, places along railway tracks or along major roads quickly turned into centres of transit. This collective volume explores the history and present-day significance of zones of transit and examines transience both in terms of being in transit in a geographical location and in terms of being in transit in the course of life. Three introductory chapters (Part 1 Introduction) are followed by four chapters with a strictly physical approach of transience (Part 2 'Zones of transit'). The next four chapters investigate transience in a more corporeal sense: how do people transfer within a 'zone of transit' from one societal position to another (Part 3 'Zones of transference'). The last four chapters focus both upon space and place as well as on what their impact is on inter-social relations (Part 4 'Zones of transit and transference'). Titles: Part 1: African roads to prosperity: people en route to socio-cultural and economic transformations (Akinyinka Akinyoade and Jan-Bart Gewald); Roads to prosperity: social zones of transit (Amisah Zenabu Bakuri); Roads to prosperity: reflections about a concept (Ton Dietz). Part 2: Wenela, Katima Mulilo, a zone of transit in Barotseland: the development of a holding zone for migrants on the extreme frontier of the South African empire (Jan-Bart Gewald); 'Trapped' in the North: southern migrants in northern Nigeria, 1908-1970s (Shehu Tijjani Yusuf); Migration and competition over commercial spaces: the case of Songhay migrants at the Kumasi central market, Ghana 1930-1948 (Isaie Dougnon); Resettlement in Zimbabwe: final destination from the zones of transition? (Marleen Dekker). Part 3: A romantic zone of transference? Botswana, Ghanaian migrants and marital social mobility (Rijk van Dijk); The opportunities of the margin: the Kapsiki smith and his road to prosperity (Cameroon/Nigeria, Walter van Beek); Migrants' assessment of prospects in migration: a case study of conservancy labourers in the University of Cape Coast, Ghana (Augustine Tanle, Benjamin Kofi Nyarko and Akinyinka Akinyoade); Coercion or volition: making sense of the experiences of female victims of trafficking from Nigeria in the Netherlands (Taiwo Oabisi Oluwatoyin and Akinyinka Akinyoade). Part 4: So be nya dagna?

VL - 24 IS - 3 U2 - w03 U3 - Abstract available N2 - This paper examines the determinants of net interest margins (NIMs) in four regional blocks in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Using bank-level data, the authors find that countries with a high level of operating costs, a low level of non-interest income, a high ratio of equity to total assets and high treasury-bill interest rates have higher NIMs. Moreover, high operating costs are associated with low measures of institutional quality and a small size of bank operations. They find support for the view that market structure is also partly responsible for high NIMs in SSA, although quantitatively this effect is somewhat less important. High operating costs, high treasury-bill rates and a high ratio of equity to total assets and, indirectly, institutional factors, such as the rule of law, are the most important factors in accounting for high interest margins in the East African Community, relative to other regions.

VL - 24 IS - 3 U2 - w03 U3 - Abstract available N2 - Post debt relief, the number of African countries considering accessing international capital markets, often to fund large infrastructure projects, is increasing. Potential risks of capital inflows are well known but the literature offers little help to estimate the cost of borrowing internationally for the first time. This article proposes a two-step approach to estimate the sovereign credit rating and interest rate cost of a country considering borrowing externally. Estimates can be used to assess the costs and benefits of different financing options. The method can also be used to construct foreign currency as well as domestic local currency yield curves.

VL - 46 U2 - w03 U3 - Abstract available N2 - The Tanzanian language Ngoni has interacted for long with Swahili, which is the more prestigious and dominant lingua franca in Tanzania. This language contact situation affects Ngoni, which frequently borrows terms from Swahili, both for concepts which are new to the Ngoni speakers, but also terms which replace existing Ngoni vocabulary. This paper investigates how borrowed words are integrated, based on a framework including semantic generalisation, specialisation and shift. The study is based on fieldwork conducted in the Songea District in the Ruvuma Region of Tanzania, in the three villages of Peramiho, Kilagano and Mhepai. It was found that borrowing was most frequent in the semantic fields 'modern world', 'food and drink' and 'clothing and grooming'. Additive borrowing was found to be more frequent than substitutive. Only semantic widening of borrowed terms was attested. However, combined with a tendency of replacement of old Ngoni terms with both Swahili and Ngoni hypernyms, it indicates that speakers' competence of the language is waning. This loss of competence may additionally be linked to a more general attrition of Ngoni culture and traditions, which may affect language maintenance. Bibliogr., notes, ref., sum.

VL - 46 IS - 2 U2 - w03 U3 - Abstract available N2 - The notion of translanguaging has recently attracted attention in bilingual educational contexts worldwide. Noteworthy, however, is a paucity of studies that have assessed its effectiveness as a teachable strategy in complex African multilingual classrooms. This study investigated metacognitive reflections of 15 (n=15) student teachers towards their use of discursive language practices in learning Sepedi as an additional language in a teacher education programme. During classroom interactions, the participants' community (home) languages were permitted to offset linguistic fixity often experienced in monolingual classroom contexts. The results of the study revealed a heightened cross-fertilisation of transcultural identities and fluid communicative repertoires that extend beyond traditional linguistic codes. Using a translanguaging framework, the author extends its scope as an effective strategy to renegotiate African language boundaries based on an ubuntu worldview (i.e., one being incomplete without the other) and highlight cognitive, pedagogical and social advantages of the languaging phenomenon. Pedagogical implications and areas of further research on translanguaging are considered at the end of the paper. Bibliogr., sum.

VL - 42 IS - 3 U2 - w03 U3 - Abstract available N2 - Recent analyses of the continued dominance of the African National Congress (ANC) have centred on its organizational, electoral, governmental and popular bases of power. This paper extends this analysis by arguing that the ANC derives significant political power through its political communications, and particularly its political marketing. Through the lens of the latter, it examines the ANC's strategic political behaviour over time. It extends its analytical purview beyond election campaigns to include the process of creating the symbolic bases of the South African state through the discursive continuity of economic policy. This paper roots the ANC's political marketing within a wider historical, cultural, representational and political setting. It demonstrates the recursive practices and effects of the ANC's communications and the deep entanglement of politics with marketing. This paper makes an initial contribution to reconceptualizing the bases of the ANC's political dominance and sheds light on an understudied aspect of its political and cultural orientation.

Focusing on sudden stops, currency, twin and sovereign debt crises, the article shows that crises are associated with growth collapses in Africa. In contrast, openness is found to be beneficial to growth. More specifically, consistent with standard Mundell-Fleming type models, greater openness to trade and financial flows is found to mitigate the adverse effects of crises. These findings are robust to various measures of both openness and crises as well as to endogeneity concerns. Bibliogr., notes, ref., sum.

VL - 42 IS - 3 U2 - w03 U3 - Abstract available N2 - How do unions relate to struggles being waged by those who are poor and lack secure employment? Drawing on a content analysis of 176 press releases, this article examines how two South African unions, the private manufacturing union NUMSA (National Union of Metalworkers of South Africa) and the public services union SAMWU (South African Municipal Workers Union), officially responded to protests in township communities ravaged by unemployment. Both unions recognize the importance of the protests, but they situate them within different narratives. Revolving around a notion of failed redistribution, the NUMSA narrative is more left leaning but also more hostile to community protests, viewing them as lacking in political direction. Revolving around a notion of failed administration, the SAMWU narrative is less radical but expresses greater sympathy with and understanding of the protests. The two narratives suggest that union solidarity with more insecure layers of the working class will depend on their relation to the state and ruling party, and the extent to which they view themselves as privileged actors in working-class struggle.

VL - 24 IS - 3 U2 - w03 U3 - Abstract available N2 - This study investigates the relationship between family network density and income hiding in rural Liberia. The authors link people's behaviour in a modified lottery experiment and a time preference game to detailed information about their family networks. They find that individuals with a dense family network are more likely to pay a fraction of their endowment to hide their earnings from the experiment. This association is mainly driven by male respondents. They also find that men with dense family networks have lower discount rates than those with smaller networks. Qualitative responses suggest that these men perceive the authors as an alternative bank: if they have no immediate purpose for the money, they prefer the research team to keep it for two weeks. This prevents them from spending it on things other than its intended use and may keep predatory members of the family network at bay. The negative association between family network density and investment decisions is stronger if these networks are characterised by members who sought financial support in the past. Taken together, the results offer tentative evidence that dense family networks, under some conditions, have adverse impacts on economic decision-making. Bibliogr., notes, ref., sum.

While seminal to an understanding of both status and gender relations in the West African state pre-war, the oppositional terms of civilised/native have been very much ignored in analyses post-conflict. The article draws upon the impressive body of literature analysing disarmament, demobilisation and reintegration (DDR)-and gendered reintegration specifically-in Liberia and fuses it with pre-war anthropological work on the civilised/native dichotomy. It is argued that a lack of focus on this seminal dichotomy reflects a pattern of antipathy towards a nuanced understanding of gender in the planning and analyses of reintegration more generally, and poses critical questions on the impact of such neglect AV - AFRIKA article Y2 - 2016/01/21/ M3 - 400367289 ER - TY - BOOK ID - 255 T1 - Histoires extraordinaires du commandant B‚chir : r‚cit A1 - Laoukol‚,Jean Y1 - 2015/// N1 - Sequel to Les rebelles selon Monsieur le Pr‚fet and to La d‚mocratie humili‚e.

VL - 24 IS - 3 U2 - w03 U3 - Abstract available N2 - This study uses detailed household-level data to assess whether rural Tanzanian households seem able to allocate labour so as to maximise their incomes, and what factors determine if they do. In contrast to much earlier work on income diversification the author uses crop-level data to explicitly evaluate marginal returns within agriculture. The integrated household survey used allows him to then link these returns to household characteristics and broader labour supply decisions and consumption behaviour. In line with expectations agricultural wage work seems to be a last resort option, as agricultural wage labourers have lower marginal returns than others due to a higher labour allocation to own agricultural production. Furthermore, wage rates are much higher than the agricultural shadow wages, implying that there are gains to be made from expanding the non-farm side of the rural economy. However, there is no evidence that households are stuck in agriculture due to being constrained from entering the existing labour market, and neither does the author find preferences for own crops being important for labour allocation. Work preferences seem to play a role though, and the findings are consistent with both credit and social networks being important determinants of a household's marginal productivity in agriculture.

VL - 42 IS - 3 U2 - w03 U3 - Abstract available N2 - The formulation of grand economic policy strategies to promote growth, job creation, and industrial development has been a regular feature in South Africa's democratic transformation. The National Development Plan (NDP) is the latest in a line of such strategies dating back to the Reconstruction and Development Programme in 1994. While the creation of these strategies at various points in the country's transition has been indicative of the state's commitment to economic progress, implementing this commitment has been severely tested by the locus of authority, cohesion among and capacity of state institutions. In this paper, the authors critically examine the institutional arrangements behind the implementation of grand economic policy strategies in South Africa, observe how these produced variable implementation effectiveness across these initiatives, and consider the lessons for the implementation of the NDP. The authors will specifically focus on how 'co-ordination' was configured through the institutional arrangements, and look at how this shaped implementation. Bibliogr., notes, ref., sum.

A central actor in the democratic struggle, the movement continues to play a crucial role in the post-apartheid period. However, public opinion data collected by the South African Social Attitudes Survey for the period 2011-2013 suggest that only a minority of the public currently trust the organized labour movement. No cleavage in individual trust in trade unions was noted between age cohorts and labour market status. Distrust among the lower and working class has expanded significantly between 2011 and 2013. Findings suggest that trade unions in the country are increasingly associated with the unpopular political establishment. More research on public attitudes towards unions is required. There is a need for trade unions to intensify their engagement with working-class communities in order to build greater levels of individual trust. Bibliogr., notes, ref., sum.

VL - 46 IS - 2 U2 - w03 U3 - Abstract available N2 - One of the enduring problems of South African educational policy changes in the past 20 years is the fact that curricula, legislation and policies have changed radically while the staff complement has remained relatively stable. Despite a progressive national language policy, schools have increasingly introduced English as the sole language of learning and teaching (LoLT), preferably from the earliest grades. In all the debate about the 'best' language of learning and teaching, however, there seems to be a missing voice: that of the teacher. Using an analytical framework developed by Richard Baldauf, this study shows how a focus on micro level language planning activities is important for teacher development and language policy implementation. When debating language issues, particularly the language of learning and teaching, teachers do not have a big enough say or may not be fully aware of alternative models for multilingual classes. This study brings the teacher's voice to the language policy debate. The results show that teachers are keenly aware of the multilingual context and their views and decision-making processes reflect this awareness. App., bibliogr., sum.

Stigmatisation of tungiasis sufferers has been identified as a key reason why tungiasis frequently progresses untreated in many parts of the world, however little research has investigated the specifics of tungiasis stigma or the communication strategies sufferers use to manage stigmatization. This article reports results of focus group and in-depth interviews regarding strategies used to manage tungiasis stigma from the perspective of persons living with tungiasis in Murang'a County, Kenya. Most frequently mentioned were withdrawal tactics. Participants also engaged in refutation strategies to deny responsibility for their condition. Implications for stigma management communication theory are discussed. Bibliogr., sum.

VL - 46 IS - 2 U2 - w03 U3 - Abstract available N2 - In this work the author investigates cultural, historical and cognitive motivations for noun classification in Sereer-Saloum, an Atlantic language of the Senegambian language family. She uses a prototype theory approach to categorisation (following Lakoff 1987; Rosch 1975, among others), emphasising semantic motivations for noun classes based on underlying conceptual category structures. In keeping with similar studies, the analysis assumes that linguistic categorisation is reflective of underlying conceptual patterns that are motivated rather than generated. In Sereer, these patterns are largely predictable from information about shape, function and force-dynamics; deviations from the prototype are explained via metonymic and metaphoric extensions, and specific cultural information. Sereer illustrates that even in the face of dialectal diffusion and diachronic attrition of overt morphological noun classes, cognitively salient best examples are maintained and members are reassigned to the remaining classes based on best-fit family resemblances due to the internal logic of the conceptual category system.

It was built up by negotiating licences and by acquiring operators, notably Investcom, a Lebanese-owned firm with operations in Asia, Africa and Cyprus. Such opportunities arose from the liberalisation of national markets and the financialisation of the sector. MTN now has licences from some very unattractive governments, to which it pays taxes, provides wire-tapping, collects metadata and censors content. Its business partners have included political parties, cronies of political leaders and individuals on a United Nations asset freeze list. It denies allegations it displaced a rival in Iran by corrupt means. It successfully became a major international operator, but acquisitions have stopped, forcing it to rely on organic growth and new technologies. Bibliogr., notes, ref., sum.

VL - 36 IS - 1 U2 - w03 U3 - Abstract available N2 - The cycle of ethno-political violence experienced in Kenya every electoral period threatens democracy, development, peace and stability. The devastating effects of the violence have variously affected Kenyan society. A section of Kenyans determined to prevent the country from receding further as a result of the violence have (re)conceptualised and (re)formulated graffiti as alternative tools for social transformation. The physical space has become a rostrum of civic advocacy and citizen participation, as graffiti is (re)framed to engage the populace and political leadership, and to develop national consciousness and moral accountability. The graffiti writers ('artivists') use symbols and objects as signifiers in order to relate and understand others, and express concepts in the daily life of Kenyans. Framed within the Symbolic Interactionist theoretical perspective, the study employs ethnographic methodologies to examine the conceptualisation, design and production of objects, physical signs and symbols as primary means of interaction, as used in the graffiti. The study advances a typology of the unique contribution of graffiti to the struggle for social change and contention in Kenya, which is distinct from more traditional social activism and protests. In particular, the study explores the ways in which the graffiti reflects a particular identity, agency, activism and advocacy that values daring, risk, rebelliousness, ingenuity, commitment and sacrifice, while at the same time calling upon and reflecting particular national and traditional values AV - AFRIKA article Y2 - 2016/01/21/ M3 - 400366932 ER - TY - JOUR ID - 222 T1 - Recalibrating Africa's geo-political calculus : a critique of South Africa's hegemonic status A1 - Ogunnubi,Olusola Y1 - 2015/// KW - Africa KW - international relations KW - leadership KW - power KW - South Africa RP - NOT IN FILE SP - 387 EP - 406 JA - Politikon: (2015), vol.42, no.3, p.387-406 : tab.

On the backdrop of the recalibration of Nigeria's GDP making it Africa's largest economy, there have been counter arguments that South Africa's regional influence is dwindling as a result of its staggering economy among other domestic impediments. In this paper, the author takes the position that although South Africa's capacity to fulfil a hegemonic role may be hindered by internal and external ambivalences, these factors do not in any way disqualify the country from playing a hegemonic role. He concludes by making the assertion that our regional understanding of hegemony in the African context must be one that operates beyond the realm of the preponderant material capabilities of a state into reasonable measures of ideational characteristics.

VL - 42 IS - 3 U2 - w03 U3 - Abstract available N2 - The purpose of this article is a theoretical one, namely to make the case for a critical-reflectivist approach to the study of regionalism in Africa and beyond. The authors argue that contemporary changes in the global political economy require political economists to reconsider how we study regional processes and actors. The article provides insights into the sociology of the field of study by recounting its evolution, reviewing key debates and tracing the dominance of rationalist theories on regional integration and regionalism. Subsequently, the article questions the ontological premises of state-centrism and market logics in conventional regional theorization that does not take account of the complexities and multidimensionality of regions and regional processes. Traditional approaches to regionalism fail to do justice to regional manifestations and the repercussions of Africa's changing transnational relations as well as to crucial dynamics within regional civil societies. In this respect, the analytical value of both Robert W. Cox's World Order Approach (WOA) and the New Regionalism(s) Approach (NRA) for challenging the theoretical hegemony in the field of study is elaborated on. The theoretical framework proposed in this article points to neglected dimensions of regionalization and stresses both structural factors as well as the myriad of regional actors and their respective regional strategies as drivers of the changing nature of developing regionalisms in Africa. The authors' claim that regionalism is everything but a 'states only' domain is substantiated by the proposed conceptualization of regional civil society, a persistent analytical 'blind spot' in the study of regionalism. Drawing eclectically on the WOA and the NRA, the article provides a theoretical 'entry-point' for the analytical incorporation of regional civil societies into the political economy of African regionalisms. The article concludes by arguing that analytical and theoretical sensitivity to potentially transformative societal actors and processes at the regional level becomes increasingly relevant in the context of shared experiences of neoliberal globalization/regionalization as well as of Africa's new 'partnerships' with emerging powers.

VL - 24 IS - 3 U2 - w03 U3 - Abstract available N2 - Using data from an original nationally representative survey in Senegal, the author estimates the effect of the widespread practice of child fostering on host children's educational outcomes. She finds that host girls aged six to nine at the arrival of the foster sibling significantly benefit in terms of school enrolment. She does not find any effect on host boys. Although cross-sectional, the survey data enables to implement different estimation strategies to measure the effect of interest limiting estimation bias due to the potential joint determination of decisions to host a foster child and to enrol one's child. Furthermore, the author addresses a second issue commonly encountered by the literature: the identification of the foster children. Two groups are identified: children formally fostered-in and children informally fostered-in. Extending the group of foster children to include children informally fostered-in affects the results. One possible channel for the observed effect on host girls could be the release of liquidity constraints. Indeed the labour supply of mothers increases with the presence of foster girls, likely because foster girls replace them in their household tasks. App., bibliogr., notes, ref., sum.

In answering this historically relevant question, this article re-examines the dominant narratives and hegemonic schools of thought that have attempted to tackle this phenomenon. Drawing from existing theoretical trends, this article repackages and synthesises their hypotheses into a basic formula. Escaping the ideological trappings of the past and overcoming the old structure-agency and material-ideational divide, this article argues that in West Africa, and the Sahel-Sahara region in particular, prerequisites for terrorism and factors that allow an effective dissemination of 'Salafi-jihadism' are primarily located in geography (human and physical) and history.

VL - 41 IS - 4 U2 - w03 U3 - Abstract available N2 - It has been well acknowledged by media historians that South Africa had a vibrant grassroots community press under apartheid, which declined with the advent of democracy. The ruling African National Congress (ANC) has supported media diversity in its media policy and has also criticised the supposedly anti-transformative nature of mainstream agenda-setting press. It has called for a range of measures to counteract this problem, including media diversity and intensified support for community media. However, apart from the establishment of the Media Development and Diversity Agency (MDDA), in its practices in government, the ANC has adopted a market-driven approach to the development of the sector, leaving questions of market structure to the Competition Commission and Tribunal. Evidence from the community press suggests that this approach, which amounts to an adaptation to neoliberalism, but with a public service top-up, is inadequate to the task of realising diversity. As a result, the community press is facing deep crisis. The article considers why the ANC has adopted an incoherent, even contradictory approach to press diversity, and what policy measures are needed to encourage the sorts of vibrant community press that a democratic South Africa needs.

The resultant rise in social media viewership and consumer engagement was notable and illustrates the efficacy of a cobranded narrative run over numerous media platforms, in this case radio, television, social media, print and the Internet.

School fees were introduced as a means for revenue-constrained governments to fund the improvement and expansion of primary education. Recently there has been a move towards their abolition. They find that the introduction of fees decreased primary school enrolment, without achieving significant quality improvements. They also discuss the impact on quality of the major increases in enrolment following the abolition of school fees and identify the government funding shortfall amplified by this policy change.

Tsitsi, a young woman, raised by her strict, devout Catholic mother, believes that hard work, prayer and an education will ensure a prosperous and happy future. She does well at her mission boarding school, and goes on to obtain a scholarship to attend university, but the change in the economic situation in Zimbabwe destroys the old system where hard work and a degree guaranteed a good life. Out of university, Tsitsi finds herself in a position much lower than she had set her sights on, working as a clerk in the office of the local politician, Zvobgo. With a salary that barely provides her a means to survive, she finds herself increasingly compromising her Christian values to negotiate ways to get ahead -- Publisher's website SN - 1-928337-12-0 pbk AV - AFRIKA Lit.10092 Y2 - 2016/01/19/ M3 - 399542140 ER - TY - JOUR ID - 220 T1 - Testing for competition in the South African banking sector A1 - Simbanegavi,Witness A1 - Greenberg,Joshua B.

They find evidence consistent with monopolistic competition in the South African banking sector. While this may be considered relatively good news for consumers that South African banks are not acting as a cartel, there is need for policies and other interventions to enhance contestability in the banking sector and thus improve efficiency.

To do this they use the KwaZulu-Natal Income Dynamics Study panel data from South Africa, which show extremely large average earnings differentials across different types of employment. The results suggest that human capital and individual ability explain much of the earnings differentials within the private sector, but cannot explain the very large premiums for public sector workers.

VL - 24 IS - 4 U2 - w03 U3 - Abstract available N2 - The authors study the impact of post-election ethnic violence in Kenya on the wheat and maize market in Mombasa and find empirical evidence that for these food markets, there is no impact on prices following violence. Using a data set of a flour producing firm, they identify the degree of persistence in prices and quantities by means of techniques based on long memory and long range dependence. Prices are found to be highly persistent in both wheat and maize flour, with orders of integration which are around one or even above one. On the contrary, quantities, though also persistent, appear to be fractionally integrated, with orders of integration in the interval (0, 0.5) pointing towards stationarity, long memory and mean reverting behaviour. Violence is associated with an insignificant increase in prices of both products and a significant decrease in quantities. An external validity check on the impact of post-election ethnic violence on food prices in Nigeria yields consistent results. Bibliogr., notes, ref., sum.

VL - 41 IS - 4 U2 - w03 U3 - Abstract available N2 - The rise of film production and the ubiquitous presence of the "new wave" of films from South Africa on the international scene in recent years have raised expectations amongst local film stars hoping to get their biggest break by taking leading roles in major South African productions. However, most of these films, particularly co-productions, have continuously used foreign stars in leading roles. As a result, local stars have constantly voiced concerns about the proliferation of foreign artists in leading roles in South African productions. Many explanations have been offered in trying to understand why filmmakers tend to cast a foreign star when a local one could probably do a better job (in, for example, portraying a local icon like Nelson Mandela) and still command a lesser fee. However, this article puts forward that most of these arguments are based on intuition rather than on the real dynamics and externalities governing this practice. The article attempts to make sense of the issue by arguing that the rationale for this practice stems from a film being a high-risk investment that it is driven by the broader financial imperatives of film production. The article offers empirical evidence to suggest that stars do not add economic value to the film, but to themselves (see Elberse 2005), since the bulk of the money goes towards their appearance fees. It is concluded that the traditional model guiding film finance and the logic behind it need to be looked at afresh, given the fact that several films have failed at the box office, both locally and internationally, despite featuring major foreign stars, compared to the massive success of some local films (e.g., Jerusalema, Tsotsi and Yesterday) with local stars in the leading roles.

VL - 46 IS - 2 U2 - w03 U3 - Abstract available N2 - South Africa faces the greatest HIV infection rate among adolescents on the globe. Most university students are part of this age cohort, and are treated as an essential audience for campaigns aimed at curbing the infection rate. This investigation departs from the observation that the texts disseminated among students may benefit from critical reflection on the discourse through which the sexuality of target audiences is constructed. A pragmatic and metadiscursive analysis is conducted of the devices used in a particular text. This text was selected because in working to directly address the sexuality of the target audience, and by explicitly expounding the communicators' stance toward it, the text assumes a unique approach among those currently designed specifically for the student population. Analysing its construction of the audience's sexuality may therefore yield insights into the way specific pragmatic and metadiscursive devices are used to enhance the relevance of their HIV/AIDS messages.

Counselling is centrally placed in many AlDS-related policies in Botswana and is sponsored by both the govemment and religious organisations. Within the broad spectrum of Christianity, Pentecostal churches are very active. They ernphasise the refashioning of relationships by mediating moral imperatives and by engaging with psychological knowledge on personal behaviour and on techniques of counselling in a changing context of sexuality. This paper explores the significance of religious counselling in terms of the disciplining effects concerning personal behaviour and the ways in which this form of communication is generating a wider interest in this society. This is particularly attractive to members of the educated classes who are engaging with Pentecostal counselling as a way of refashioning their domain of intimate relations. Yet, it does not only provide informed ideas on intimate relations - being often one of the proclaimed objectives of counselling - it also produces a communication about intimate matters that is intended to inform a critique of sociocultural conventions. This is a counter-cultural dynamic of counselling, which has been little noticed in the academic study of counselling practices in Africa.

Chapter Ten -- Sale of Government Houses in Abuja This is a story of Nigeria, told from the inside. After a successful career in the private sector, Nasir El-Rufai rose to the top ranks of Nigeria's political hierarchy, serving first as the privatization czar at the Bureau for Public Enterprises and then as Minister of the Federal Capital Territory of Abuja under former President Olesegun Obasanjo. In this tell-all memoir, El-Rufai reflects on a life in public service to Nigeria, the enormous challenges faced by the country, and what can be done while calling on a new generation of leaders to take the country back from the brink of destruction SN - 978-84314-6-1 AV - AFRIKA 49420 Y2 - 2016/01/19/ M3 - 397762119 ER - TY - ADVS ID - 273 T1 - uKukhumbula uNokutela = Remembering Nokutela A1 - Keita,Cheick Mahamadou Ch‚rif Y1 - 2013/// N1 - Engels en Zulu gesproken, Engels ondertiteld KW - African National Congress (South Africa) KW - biographies (form) KW - documentary films (form) KW - South Africa KW - videos (form) KW - women KW - women teachers RP - NOT IN FILE CY - [Saint Paul, MN] PB - Media Lab Africa U2 - w03 U3 - Abstract available N2 - This film attempts to re-create the life of Nokutela Mdima Dube, a scholar, missionary, teacher and wife of the founder of the ANC For ninety-five years the remains of Nokutela Mdima Dube lay ignored in the Brixton Cemetery in Johannesburg (South Africa). Similarly ignored were her contributions to the founding and development of a critical set of institutions the Ohlange Institute, the Inanda Seminary, the Ilange lase Natal newspaper and the African National Congress - as well as to Zulu chorale music and the valuation of the education of women. Upon her death at age 44 in 1917, Nokutela, the estranged first wife of ANC-founder John Dube, was interred without individual marking in the section of the cemetery marked "C.K." ("Christian Kaffir"). The filmmaker, Professor of French and Francophone Studies at Carleton College (US), set himself the task of finding her grave and bringing together the far reaches of her family, while making her contributions and story more widely known by erecting a proper monument and making a film about Remembering.

Il a ‚labor‚ un systŠme multi-agents en repr‚sentant un espace compos‚ de diff‚rents milieux, une ressource constitu‚e de groupes de poissons de diff‚rentes espŠces et des pˆcheurs qui peuvent prendre des d‚cisions sur leurs activit‚s de pˆche.

L'auteur a men‚ plusieurs exp‚riences sur le theme de l'intensification d'exploitation. Tout d'abord, il a repr‚sent‚ une augmentation arithm‚tique de l'effort de pˆche en fonction du temps : les captures augmentent puis passent par une longue phase plateau au cours de laquelle elles restent a peu prŠs constantes avant de chuter brutalement. Cette r‚ponse est ‚tudi‚e en fonction de diverses hypothŠses sur la structure du monde artificiel. Ensuite, il a repr‚sent‚ des agents pˆcheurs, en simulant des processus de prise de d‚cision qui integrent diverses rŠgles d'accŠs a l'espace. La coh‚rence de chacune des exp‚riences avec le r‚el est discut‚e. L'ensemble des r‚sultats est discut‚ pour illustrer et lier diverses connaissances exprim‚es par les chercheurs au sujet de l'‚volution de la pˆche au Mali.
